Is there any way to get the full remote hostname as it would appear in
the ouput of the "who" command?
Example:
% who
disser ttyp1 Dec 8 12:20 (bendog.engin.umi)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This should be bendog.engin.umich.edu
Any fairly OS-independent way to do this? I'd like to use this to set my
DISPLAY variable in my .login file, which will be sourced by Ultrix, BSD,
and AIX machines.
Please post replies by mail, as I do not read this newsgroup.
